Question

Which of the following is an example of personification?

  1. My house is a friend who protects me
  2. My house is in Warangal

hintHint:

Personification is a figure of speech where non-living things and those living creatures except for human beings are treated as a person. It is an ornamental use of language to impose humane features and personal attributes on non-humans.

The correct answer is: My house is a friend who protects me


    The correct answer is "My house is a friend who protects me".
    Among the two options given, only the first one shows the speaker's house - like a good friend - protecting and securing him. Here, the house - a non-living thing - has been provided with personal attributes - protecting somebody - and thus, the sentence is expressing the simple meaning of the safety and security any house gives its residents, but in a more ornamental and aesthetic manner. So, the correct answer is  "My house is a friend who protects me".
